Romance / For Single Ladies: The Truth About Finding A Husband ‘in Nigeria’ by bwgist: 8:26pm On Jan 28, 2015
I just moved back, you know I need to settle down and tap into the opportunities back home ‘cause there’s nothing out there for me’ This my friends is usually the first line you hear from one of these ‘I just got backs’ (IJGB) who just moved back home especially to Lagos looking for greener pastures because for some reason most people who live abroad are told of how nigeria is the land of untapped opportunities with the chance for fresh minds to come tap into. I do not disagree with that fact but with all of the opportunities wasting away on the streets of Lagos, a lot of IJGBs move back with one more motive and that is to ‘catch a good man and get married’.

I mean can you blame them?, with the number of engagements/weddings springing out of nigeria on a weekly basis with some being featured on BellaNaija, it’s very easy to believe that nigeria is the land of milk and honey with ‘good men’ roaming the streets and not enough single women to satisfy their crave to be ‘settled’. They probably have some Aunties who call to tell them of all their cousins who are now married and then end it with ‘ Nne you need to come back, there is one Obinna working with Shell that is very eligible, his mother is my very good friend and the two of you will be perfect for each other’ so sista gurl goes about planning her relocation to nigeria so she can join the league of girls that are enjoying the freebies from all these men that love to ‘spend’, expect nothing in return and then have an elaborate BellaNaija worthy wedding. *sigh*

Last weekend I met Annie at an art expo, because those are the things most IJGBs like to go for, and she mentioned how adjusting back into the Nigerian life has not been as easy as she expected. Annie was very much the Americanah with her stylishly packed braids, her strong American accent and her light makeup which you could tell was her attempt of trying to be a Gidi girl because dem no born you well commot house without war paint (that’s another topic). Annie left a good job in New York to come settle down in Nigeria (thanks to family pressure) and somehow expected that she would be married within a year, well she’s been back for almost 3 years and is still as single as ever because the guys home ‘aren’t like the guys abroad’ and her initial naivety made her an easy prey in this jungle.

Annie is simply a representation of a lot of female IJGBs who venture into this risk for marriage either by media illusion or family pressure without knowing the truth of what the Nigerian dating scene is like. Even though I find it absolutely crazy to relocate just to get married here are some truths that those restless aunties have failed to mention

There are A LOT of single women in Nigeria – women of different ages, shapes, sizes, backgrounds, income levels and social classes. They do not have spiritual problems, most are drop dead gorgeous and are ‘original’ wifey material but somehow happen to be single. So before you start rambling about how you are the difference that Nigeria needs, think again!

Some single men in Nigeria are spoilt kids – I say ‘some’ to avoid being attacked for generalizing but you will find that a lot of single guys are used to being pampered by women especially guys who may have some kind of money. But can you blame them? They often have different ladies offering to do things such as their laundry, cooking services and occasional bedroom services so coming around and speaking with a foreign accent does not exactly enhance your market, it only makes you ‘exotic’ like the Asian to the average Caucasian.

It’s a jungle out here – a concrete jungle where ladies would do anything for that ring. Babes are constantly enhancing their selling points; longer weaves, more make-up (with accurate contouring), more acquired accents and buying clothes on credit. If you are ready to be in this jungle, you need to realise your cute t-shirt and jeans with hair in a ponytail is not a selling point (maybe add some ruby woo and you could blend in).

Naija babes don’t trust themselves – so don’t go about blabbing about this new guy with ‘potential’ that you met because the same girl you are gisting with freely may end up getting to that guy before he realizes what a wonderful woman you are. Also, do not feel insulted or upset when you realise your friend has kept her man a secret until her introduction, it’s just the way it is. I mean I have a friend who gave me the wrong name until she was getting married then she claimed she calls him more by his ‘middle name’…yea

All na packaging – especially in this Lagos, the cars, the house, the ‘CEO’ title could be real but every original has a counterfeit so do your due diligence before falling in the wrong hands and crying a river because bros was lying to you all along. Don’t say Miss Gidi didn’t warn you o.

At the end of the day, it’s good to be home; to be with family and indeed tap into the many opportunities but if your main purpose is to come back, find a husband and marry then you need to think again because the bad roads, bad water and poor light situation would be the least of your problems when you return.

Celebrities / See Popular Nollywood Big Girls In Their 30’S & 40’S That Are Still Single by bwgist: 7:08pm On Jan 28, 2015
As liberated as our society is now, it is hard to find a woman that would go out of her way to propose to a man. The norm is the other way round. So, for a woman, waiting to get a marriage proposal may me as certain as waiting for the proverbial hen to play a golden egg. It doesn’t have to do with beauty, wealth or status, or else all the Nollywood divas would have been long married before they hit their 30s.

Why are these ladies single in spite of their relative affluence and beauty? Meet some of Nollywood singles in their 30s, 40s still single and why:

I am not under pressure to get married— Halima Abubakar

Halima Abubakar is one actress that is well endowed physically, but is yet to get married. Hear her:”I
don’t know why people always seem to be putting pressure on others to get married. When the marriage doesn’t work out, they will be the first to criticize you. My parents are not pressurising me to get married; my family is not pressurising me to get married either. So, I don’t see why I should let anyone pressurise me into marriage.”

As a woman I am ready for marriage — Franca Brown

Popular Nollywood thespian, Franca Brown recently spoke about her single status and her readiness to get married if marriage comes her way. The actress who is over 40 has a daughter. Speaking to Vanguard recently, she said “I believe in marriage. I was born into a home, I have a father and a mother. But marriage has not come my way, and I don’t think it’s yet a challenge to me. When it comes my way, it comes. As a woman I am ready for marriage”.

When any good man comes along – ANGELA PHILIPS

The beautiful and busty ‘Peacemaker’ star actress talked about her single status to Vanguard recently. Her words “If any good man comes to marry me and I like the person, why not? Maybe the ones coming are the wrong ones. I will like to marry a God fearing man, a trustworthy person, a friend who will be like my brother, father and husband. Everything rolled into one”.

I have not found the right man— Ejiro Okurame

Beautiful Delta State born actress, Ejiro Okurame spoke about her marital status recently. “I am old enough to get married and have children. What has kept me single this long is the fact that I have not found the right man”.

Qualify me as a late starter in marriage — Ada Ameh

40 years old plus-sized actress, Adah Ameh is still single though she has a grown up daughter who she had at 14. The actress talked about her single status in a newspaper interview. “I am still very single. I believe I will get married some day. I don’t know when, but I will be married. I am beautiful. I am fearfully and wonderfully made. When the time for marriage comes, it will happen. Some people are late starters while some others are early starters. Maybe you will qualify me as a late starter in marriage. The most important thing is that I will get married some day.”

* Rita Dominic: She is still waiting for Mr Right
* Bimbo Akintola: “I’m not searching for a husband”

Politics / Why We Attached Buhari's Current Passport On His Certificate - School by bwgist: 6:44am On Jan 25, 2015
[img]http://img./hsi/aHR0cDovL3d3dy5uYWlqYWxvYWRlZC5jb20ubmcvd3AtY29udGVudC91cGxvYWRzLzIwMTUvMDEvYnVoYXJpX3Jlc3VsdF9pbWFnZS5qcGc=/images/buhari_result_image.jpg[/img]
The examination officer, Government College, Kastina, Kabir Ahmed has explained why the school authorities attached a recent passport photograph of the presidential candidate of the APC, Gen. Muhammadu Buhari to his statement of result.

Speaking with DAILY POST on phone, the examination officer confirmed that the school authorities decided to release the result after the owner had demanded for it.

Asked if the Daura General personally applied for it, Kabir said, “must he apply for it in person? We received a message that one of our ex students was demanding for his result and we had to release it. However, we are still expecting him to come in person for verification.”

Clearing air on the use of Buhari’s recent passport photograph on the controversial result, Kabir said: “this happened over 54 years ago. My work is to release the result as demanded, which I did. We have to attach his recent passport because we could not locate the one he used during registration. The issue now is, they demanded for the result and I’ve done my job”, he told DAILY POST.

When prodded further to explain why the result bears ‘Kastina’ State which was not created as at the time Buhari sat for the exam, Kabir said: “Mr. Journalist, I am going for prayer now, please call me back.”

Politics / See Photos Of New Beautiful Homes Owned By Patience Jonathan by bwgist: 1:27am On Jan 25, 2015
Nestled in a beautiful estate in a small community of Ambemebiri in Okrika town is the palatial home of Patience Jonathan, wife of president Goodluck Jonathan. She hails from the urban city which is one of the most developed towns in Rivers State. Located very close to the abode of a popular King Oil, the First Lady’s neighbourhood is a sight to behold.

In the massive compound, there are over 6 magnificent structures basically blocks of flats built side ways to each other.

Among the buildings inside the compound,construction is still ongoing on in one.The first building is a block of about 12 flats that is directly beside a big church,which shares the same fence with the villa. Right in the middle of the compound is another similar building but currently being painted.

And behind it is another big bungalow with the same black roofing. One very unique thing about the vicinity is that all the houses within the neighbourhood are all being renovated. Some are one storey buildings while others are either duplexes or a bungalows. It was gathered that the first lady in her usual philanthropic nature, took the responsibility of renovating some of the poorly built houses around there and transformed them into a more conducive home,a way of giving back to her community.

The house is barricaded with an average height fencing with railings and flowers creating an aestethic view.The lane that leads into her abode is flanked by armed soldiers who guard the vicinity.

[img]http://3.bp..com/-glaKtON0ny0/VLhBI2amdDI/AAAAAAAETrE/cCAlP6iwt-U/s1600/0.png[/img]
CNN aired an interview a few hours ago with people they claim are Nigerian soldiers who told them that Nigerian soldiers are buying their own kit to fight Boko Haram and when they get injured in the line of duty, they cater for their own medical bills. The Nigerian military has condemned the interview .. they even said Satanic CNN report. Lol. Watch interview here
